iPhone Outselling Android?
Is this really the picture, globally?
“IDC figures show that iPhone has 16.1 percent of the smartphone market and growing, far outselling Android on a worldwide basis. We had a record quarter with iPhone sales growing by 131 percent and with our new iPhone OS 4.0 software coming this summer, we see no signs of the competition catching up anytime soon.” These were the words of Apple spokesperson Natalie Harrison to The Loop, and it makes one wonder at the previous report of Android outselling the iPhone in Q1 of 2010 which doesn’t seem to lend any credence to the words of Harrison.
I’m actually unsure as to whether Android poses a greater threat inside the US or outside of it – I rather suspect outside as more phones pick up the OS.
